About Notes! - Learn To Read Music
Over 99000 purchased!
People love Notes because it's easy and it works.
This basic flashcard app helps beginners learn the letter names for notes on the bass and treble clef ("F" on bass through to "G" on treble).
Easily toggle between treble and bass clef by tapping the clef symbol.
Letter notation can be set to any of these options:
1) C D E F G A B
2) C D E F G A H (used in Germany)
3) Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Si (Solfège)
Other Features:
• Displays a random note on the musical staff and you tap the correct letter/key.
• For MIDI savvy folk - this app is MIDI enabled! Use Apple Core MIDI compliant devices with the app.
• Toggle the visual effects on/off by tapping the trophy icon.
• Practice only specific notes (tap the gears icon to enter the Settings screen where you can disable all but the specific notes you want to practice).
TIP:
This app has slightly different functionality for portrait orientation vs. landscape orientation. To switch orientations: 1) make sure you have orientation lock off on your device, then 2) launch the app in portrait mode, then rotate your device to landscape mode. If it's not rotating for you, try toggling your lock orientation setting and try again. If you need help, contact us.

2.0.0
Apr 10, 2013
Completely re-written from the ground up! Portrait mode remains exactly as it was, however rotating your device to landscape mode now enables a full keyboard for the displayed note range (bass clef low F through to treble clef high G), along with new effects! (Your device rotation must be unlocked for this to work - by default it is.)
In landscape mode:
- you now have the full keyboard
- the visual effects can be toggled on/off
- when toggling the keyboard off (letters-only mode) the letters become nice a large
- letters highlight on touch to clearly relate the note displayed on the staff to the correct letter being touched
Note that this app is also available on the Mac app store!
Enjoy!
